The school in and around Kugaaruk
What this data can and can’t tell you
- The kinds of school. Middle and junior high schools count as secondary when they start at Grade 7 or later, elementary otherwise.
- Which schools count. Inside Kugaaruk’s boundary, or no more than 3 km outside it: that is which schools are counted.
- Boards and systems. Each public school has a board or district, English or French; independent schools stand outside them.
- The year. Schools come from StatCan’s ODEF of 2019–22, so a recent opening or closure may not show.
- What isn’t here. No ratings by inspectors, no enrolment trend: neither is published school by school.
